    Soutine

    neil, Mar 2026
    Lovely museum, second time for us. I like it better than Orsay. Soutine is my favorite. Quite a few of his works.

    Beverly_B, Oct 2025
    I have tried 4 times to use your company and every event has been cancelled! As a part time travel agent this is extremely embarrassing. I will never use your company again and will warn others of your track record.

    Use another company other then Dreamtopia Tours

    Jillene_S, Oct 2025
    I purchased these tickets from Dreamtopia Tours 2 months ago (8-12-25) and they informed me 12 hrs before my date that they were unable to obtain my tickets? I don’t understand how this happens. This was very unprofessional and profoundly impacted my vacation. They promised to refund my money and send me complimentary tickets for a Seine river cruise but those have yet to be delivered as well.

    Ticket problems

    Thomas_M, Oct 2025
    I was not able to access my tickets through the Viator app. The ticket in my wallet didn't work. Fortunately the staff let us in and told us they've had problems with Viator. After entry the chat feature sent a link with the tickets

    Not what you expect

    Roger_A, Oct 2025
    We had”beat the lineup “ tickets arrived a little early an ended up in a 45min line up. Part of the Musée was closed . Very disappointing

    Timed entry

    Linda_R, Oct 2025
    Early morning is better, having timed entry was very helpful and convenient If we had purchased the audio headset we would have received much more information

    Unfortunate

    Mary_I, Sep 2025
    I do not recommend a non-refundable ticket for this experience. We weren't feeling well and missed the morning scheduled time. This was a tour with only an audio guide (no tour guide) but we were not allowed to change the entry time.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Thank you very much for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that you were not feeling well on the day of your visit. Please note that non-refundable tickets and fixed entry times are part of the museum’s own policy, which we always indicate clearly in the tour details before purchase. Unfortunately, once tickets are issued under a visitor’s name, the museum does not allow any date or time modifications. We completely understand how disappointing this must have been and sincerely hope you’re feeling better now. Thank you for your understanding and for taking the time to share your experience with us. Kind regards, Dreamtopia Tours

    Kerry_P, Sep 2025
    My Tickets wouldn't download. Fortunately they let me in anyway but I had to purchase another audio guide.

    WaterLilly

    Kim_B, Sep 2025
    Fun to ponder the mind of Monet in front of his massive paintings. If you are short on time, skip this and go to the Orsay museum because you can see another “waterlilly” painting there too.

    Monet’s Medication Experience — the Orangerie Museum

    Charlene_V, Sep 2025
    The Orangerie Museum was a nice experience. Getting the tickets in advance with Viator makes it an easier access — no waiting in lines. The museum is small in scale — a nice mix of artists works — Monet’s mural wall (meditation) room was awesome… I recommend … Enjoy the beautiful gardens where the museum is located.

    A definite must to enjoy in Paris!

    Claire_P, Aug 2025
    This museum is a delight. It is beautifully laid out, far less busy and because the collection is relatively small, you are able to enjoy each piece of Art. Monet's Waterlillies are simply mind blowing, the space is as he wanted; calm and contemplative, ( you are meant to view in silence but this is almost impossible as people murmur their observations). There is no gift shop, which is also a positive; just simply enjoy the paintings. I highly recommend this museum / gallery.

    Beautiful Lilies

    Laurence_D, Aug 2025
    Stunning large paintings that take your breath away. Sat for hours in awe of Monet’s brilliance. New things to discover at each panel. Other art downstairs wasn’t bad either. Picasso. Modigliani.

    Better than expected

    Peter_T, Jul 2025
    Having the prepared entry was great. Otherwise line was VERY long. Saw more than expected. Even though it was busy… still able to enjoy the works.

    Directions

    Susan_C, Jul 2025
    Complete lack of specific directions. We Walked searching … Viator could have provide the simple directions. thru the golden turn right up the ramp or stairs . Disappointing

    Great!

    Marilyn_S, Jul 2025
    Tickets arrived no problem. There was a line at the museum even for ticket holders but it moved quickly. The Water Lilies are magnificent and not to be missed!

    Unique

    Lisa_G, Jun 2025
    Definitely a one-of-a-kind exhibit that everyone should experience at least once. A relaxing quality in those water lilies. Monet = Genius

    With the construction...

    Keith_H, May 2025
    With the construction around Museum it is difficult to find the entrance. I understand what Monet was trying to do but we were not impressed.

    Too loud, too busy

    Mike_P, May 2025
    It was so crowded and loud in the water lilies rooms that it ruined the experience. If you do plan to go, book first thing in the morning and motor in for a few minutes of quiet. When viewed that way, it's beautiful.

    Scam

    Jeanbaptiste_N, Oct 2025
    I have not received my tickets and have not been refunded. It is deplorable! I contacted the Customer Service but who could not do anything I am still waiting for the refund

    In the middle of the pond

    Wolfgang_F, Aug 2025
    Arriving early is important. The exhibition fills up quickly. Audio guide is important if you have a lot of time to learn more about the pictures. Annoying: People disregard calm, distract and disturb.
